MOESM1 of Reference value for expiratory time constant calculated from the maximal expiratory flow-volume curve

open access: yes, 2019
Additional file 1: Figure S1. The relationship between RCEXP and maximal mid-expiratory flow rate (MMF). To a certain extent, RCEXP is sociated with MMF with an R2 value of 0.3154 (P < 0.001). There is a gradual increase in RCEXP, especially when MMF is below approximately 1.0 L/s. Figure S2.

Changes in the Flow-Volume Curve According to the Degree of Stenosis in Patients With Unilateral Main Bronchial Stenosis [PDF]

open access: yesClinical and Experimental Otorhinolaryngology, 2015
ObjectivesThe shape of the flow-volume (F-V) curve is known to change to showing a prominent plateau as stenosis progresses in patients with tracheal stenosis.

Respiratory Function in Healthy Taiwanese Infants: Tidal Breathing Analysis, Passive Mechanics, and Tidal Forced Expiration. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Although infant lung function (ILF) testing is widely practiced in developed Western countries it is not typically performed in Eastern countries, and lung measurements are scarce for Asian infants.

Intrasubject variability of maximal expiratory flow volume curve. [PDF]

open access: yesThorax, 1977
Analysis of airflow in the terminal portion of the maximal expiratory flow volume curve has been suggested as a useful test for the early diagnosis of chronic airways obstruction. Whether such an analysis can identify early disease, and whether any subsequent action can prevent the progress of chronic airways obstruction, is unknown and will require ...

Gravitational distribution of regional opening and closing pressures, hysteresis and atelectrauma in ARDS evaluated by electrical impedance tomography

open access: yesCritical Care, 2020
Background The physiological behavior of lungs affected by the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) differs between inspiration and expiration and presents heterogeneous gravity-dependent distribution.

Role of the Emphysema Index Combined with the Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Assessment Test Score in the Evaluation of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

open access: yesCanadian Respiratory Journal, 2021
Background. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of the emphysema index (EI) in distinguishing chronic bronchitis (CB) from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and its role, combined with the COPD Assessment Test (CAT) score, in the ...

Artificial neural network identification of exercise expiratory flow-limitation in adults

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Identification of ventilatory constraint is a key objective of clinical exercise testing. Expiratory flow-limitation (EFL) is a well-known type of ventilatory constraint. However, EFL is difficult to measure, and commercial metabolic carts do not readily

Thoracic gas compression during forced expiration is greater in men than women

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2020
Intrapleural pressure during a forced vital capacity (VC) maneuver is often in excess of that required to generate maximal expiratory airflow.

Baseline spirometry parameters as predictors of airway hyperreactivity in adults with suspected asthma

open access: yesBMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2021
Background Methacholine challenge tests (MCTs) are used to diagnose airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) in patients with suspected asthma where previous diagnostic testing has been inconclusive.
